Summary

The results obtained indicate that blood reperfusion conditions in the brain disturb the postischaemic metabolism of Ca2+. This leads to the modification of the morphological picture of nervous tissue. In association with other observations in the model of ischaemia used, these findings confirm the theory of a phenomenon of acute microvascular reischaemisation (reperfusion). According to this, disturbance of Ca2+ metabolism is defined as a factor contributing to final ischaemic damage.

Key words: postischaemic hypoperfusion; cytochemical detection; Ca2+ deposit; postischaemic detection

This article is dedicated to the memory of the late Prof. P. P o p e s k o, DVM, DSc on the seventieth anniversary of his birth.
